Abstract
Near the Alto Alegre dos Parecis city is located the
Buraco da Velha copper deposit. This deposit reveals
magnetic and radiometric anomalies, representing a
considerable amount of ferromagnetic minerals in its
structure and a concentration of radiometric elements
in shallow depths. These behaviors permitted the
geophysical study of the deposit through the
magnetic and gammaspectrometric methods. This
study, allied to previous geological works, indicated
the overall spatial distribution of the magnetic and
radiometric minerals/elements, an approximation of
the age of the source of the magnetic anomaly and
the area of hydrothermalization in which can be found
the mineralized copper. This information can be
crucial for the local mining industry, for an enhanced
and more effective copper exploitation.
Introduction
The Rondnia state (Brazil) has been arousing the
interest of mining companies, due the increasing
discoveries of gold, copper and Platinum Group Elements
(PGE) deposits in recent years. The southeast portion of
this state reveals a complex structural scenario marked
by several compressional and distentional events,
Geological Context
The BVD is located in the northern Colorado Graben,
where it makes frontier with the Nova Brasilndia Terrain
(Fig. 01; Dardenne et al, 2005). The first is the southern
extension of the Parecis Basin in the Rondnia state,

Borders Delimitation
The lateral delimitation of the BVDs source was obtained
by the Amplitude of the Analytic Signal (AAS; Roest et al.,
1992) that is defined by the equation:

Inversion
The borders and depths estimation gave information
about the spatial distribution of the ferromagnetic minerals
of the BVD. The region where the BVD in inserted is
known as the main concentration of mafic and ultramafic
intrusions of the Rondnia state (Rizzotto, 1999)
especially gabbroic lithologies. Counting with the average
magnetic susceptibility for this lithology available in the
accessible literature, it was possible to compose an initial
model. It was also applied to the synthetic initial model
the directions of the induced magnetic field (IGRF) and
the angles of inclination and declination of the total
magnetic field.

Remanence Estimation
Once known the susceptibility distribution, the induced
magnetization (through the IGRF) and the angles of
inclination and declination of the total magnetization, it is
possible to make a final modeling process to achieve the
intensity of the total magnetization.
It was attributed to the distribution of susceptibility the
known induced and total magnetization components. The
unknown component at this stage is the intensity of the
total magnetization, which was estimated by a forward
modeling with the spatial parameters and the known
components of magnetization fixed, varying the intensity
until it is achieved an acceptable approximation from the
modeled and real magnetic fields.
This estimation permitted, by vector subtraction of the
induced and total magnetizations, to indicate the apparent
remanence of the BVD anomaly, with inclination of 22.7,
declination of 168.0 and intensity of 42.2 A/m.
